Overview of
Managing Director
and CEO
Assalamu Alaikum,
I am delighted to extend a warm welcome to all of you for attending the 15th Annual General Meeting of
Agrani Bank Limited. At this moment of pride, I would like to share my sense of satisfaction with the overall
performance of our bank. I am pleased to report that Agrani Bank Limited has demonstrated great resilience
in a uniquely challenging year in 2021 when there was unprecented global turbulence with recovery from
COVID-19 across the world. We have multiplied our net profit and produced our best results in different
indicators compared to those of the previous year.We would not have done it without the whole hearted
support and guidance of our honourable Board of Directors, confidence of our valued customers and
cooperation of the stakeholders. I would like to state my gratitude for your sustained support during the
period of turbulence. I am presenting this annual report of 2021 to you amid a happy time as the opening of
our pride Padma Bridge, the largest bridge in Bangladesh has brought exuberance and excitement to the
nation. I feel proud to be a humble witness of this historic moment in this year as the Padma Bridge was
opened on 25th June 2022 which has unveiled a new dawn in the development and communication of
Bangladesh. Our beloved country has made an epoch-making story of "Padma Bridge", whose unquestioned
architect and dreamer is our Prime Minister. It is Sheikh Hasina's political will that lies at the core of the
Padma Bridge becoming a reality. It was Her single-minded determination to build it and the courage to
overcome many of the odds. The Padma Bridge is the symbol of pride, hope and aspiration of the nation.
Depending on the incomparable determination of our Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, a new era of growth and
development has opened up in Bangladesh. It is my blissful pleasure that ABL is the sole supplier of foreign
currencies to this mega project. I am feeling proud to say that ABL has provided 1.40 billion US Dollar for
realizing this dream project into reality. We did not have to buy any foreign currencies from the reserve of
Bangladesh Bank to finance the project.
This year we are also witnessing a serious geopolitical tension between Ukraine and Russia which has
worsened. With the Russian invasion of Ukraine, war has returned to the heart of Europe. Although we
cannot yet fully assess the full impact of this war on the political world order and on the global economy but
certainly we are about to face prolonged serious economic crises in near future.

Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) has become a key initiatives and an essential tool for the development of the
developing countries of the world throughout the globe, which ultimately reflects through its initiatives towards

ABL truly believes that a better society is prerequisite for a better business environment. To build a better society
ABL’s ethical standard is not only meant for maximizing profit, rather its vision is built up society where human dignity
and rights receive the highest consideration and evaluation.CSR is the idea by which business can balance profit
making activities with activities that give benefits to the society. It involves developing business with a positive
relationship to the society in which they operate.A dedication to social responsibilities can actually turn into profits, as
the ideas inspire investors to invest and consume to purchase goods and services from the company. Put simply, social
responsibility helps companies to develop a good reputation.To provide CSR facilities (Financial help) ABL always give
emphasis/preference on prioritized sector such as some special community or group (the people who are physically
disabled, deprived and lagged behind, affected by natural calamities, meritorious but poor), some areas (poverty
reduction, human resources development, expansion of education, health & treatment, establishment of ‘Day Care
Center’), expansion of history, culture, tradition, sports and special attention to protect environment.

Qualified Opinion
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Agrani Bank Limited and its subsidiaries
(the “Group”) as well as the separate financial statements of Agrani Bank Limited (the “Bank”), which
comprise the consolidated and separate balance sheet as at December 31, 2021, and the consolidated
and separate profit and loss account, consolidated and separate statement of changes in equity and
consolidated and separate cash flow statement for the year then ended, and notes to the consolidated
and separate financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, except for the possible effects of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified
Opinion section of our report, the accompanying consolidated financial statements of the Group and
separate financial statements of the Bank (the “financial statements”) give a true and fair view of the
consolidated balance sheet of the Group and the separate balance sheet of the Bank as at December
31, 2021, and of its consolidated and separate profit and loss accounts, consolidated and separate
statement of changes in equity and its consolidated and separate cash flow statement for the year
then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as explained in
note # 2 and comply with the Bank Companies Act, 1991 (as amended up to date), the Companies
Act, 1994, the rules and regulations issued by the Bangladesh Bank and other applicable laws and
regulations.
We conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISAs). Our
responsibilities under those standards are further described in the auditors’ responsibilities for the
audit of the consolidated and separate financial statements section of our report. We are independent
of the Group and the Bank in accordance with the International Ethics Standards Board for Accountants’
Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants (IESBA Code), rules & regulations issued by Bangladesh
Bank, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the IESBA Code and
the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Bangladesh (ICAB) Bye-laws. We believe that the audit
evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our qualified opinion.
Emphasis of Matters
We draw attention to the following notes of the financial statements, which describe the effects in the
Bank’s financial statements. Our opinion is not modified in respect of these matters.
1. We refer to notes 12.9, 12.11, 12.12, 12.13, 12.14, 12.17, and 12.24 to the financial statements, wherein the
management has described the basis for the total required and maintained provision on loans and
advances and other provisions based on Bangladesh Bank letter no. DOS(CAMS)1157/01 (II)-C/2022-2298
dated April 28, 2022.
2. As disclosed in note no. 23 to the financial statements, the management has explained the basis for
interest income based on DBI-1 (posha-4)/2344/2022-629 dated April 28, 2022.
3. As disclosed in note no. 13.5 to the financial statements, where the Bank has described the basis on
which the risk-based capital and the capital conservation buffer have been made. As per Guidelines
on Risk-Based Capital Adequacy (RBCA) (Revised Regulatory Capital Framework for banks in line with
Basel III) dated December 2014, the bank must maintain 10% of the risk-weighted asset as minimum
capital. The bank has maintained 7.55% (Consolidated 7.48%) of the risk-weighted asset as minimum
capital.
4. We refer to note no. 18 to the financial statements, where the management has disclosed the reason for
adjusting the opening balance of retained surplus/(deficit).
5. We refer the note no. 2.43, where the management has disclosed the reason for not declaring a dividend
for the current year.
6. As disclosed in Annexure - R to the financial statements, the management has explained the basis for
unaudited financial statements and the current status of Agrani Exchange Company (Australia) Pty.
Limited and Agrani Remittance House Canada Inc.
We have fulfilled the responsibilities described in the auditors’ responsibilities for the audit of the
financial statements section of our report, including in relation to these matters. Accordingly, our
audit included the performance of procedures designed to respond to our assessment of the risks of
material misstatements of the financial statements. These results of our audit procedures, including
the procedures, performed to address the matters below, provide the basis for our audit opinion on the
accompanying financial statements.

Other Matters
1. The Bank has six subsidiaries. Among the subsidiaries, Agrani Equity & Investment Limited is audited by
Islam Aftab Kamrul & Co. The auditor has given a modified report (EOM) for the said subsidiary. The emphasis
of matter issue is given below:
2. The maintenance service provider for core banking software (Temenos T24) of the Bank has withheld
providing the support service as of February 17 2020. Consequently, in all likelihood, there is a significant
possibility of disruption for whole banking services and activities. The management has also expressed the
same risk to the Bangladesh Bank via letter ref: GgwW: wcGg: AvBwU: 01:84/26/20, , dated February 19 2020.
3. The bank has an inventory management system software. The software is developed in-house. The software
records the fixed asset details such as cost value, accumulated depreciation, purchase date, book value,
quantity and location. By the end of every month, the software generates a depreciation voucher. The
related departments or branches use the voucher as source documents to record depreciation. However,
the software has several control deficiencies. Some such deficiencies are the transfer of the asset is not
recorded separately, non-consideration of the purchase date for calculating depreciation etc.
4. We, as group auditors', had sent "Group reporting instructions" to the auditors of Agrani Equity & Investment
Limited for the year ended December 31 2021, as of 24 April 2022. However, we have not received any
response to date.
Other Information
Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises all of the information
in the annual report other than the financial statements and our auditors' report thereon. The annual report is
expected to be made available to us after the date of this auditors' report.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover other information, and we do not express any form of
assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information
identified above when it becomes available and, in doing so, consider whether the other information is materially
inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be
materially misstated. If based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement
of this other information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of management and those charged with governance for the consolidated and separate
financial statements and internal controls
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with
International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRSs) as explained in note # 2 and comply with the Bank Companies
Act, 1991 (as amended up to date), the Companies Act, 1994, the Rules and Regulations issued by the Bangladesh
Bank and other applicable Laws and Regulations and for such internal control as management determines is
necessary to enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether
due to fraud or error. The Bank Companies Act, 1991 (as amended up to date) and the Bangladesh Bank guidelines
require the management to ensure effective internal audit, internal control, and risk management functions of
the Bank. The management is also required to make a self-assessment on the effectiveness of anti-fraud internal
controls and report to Bangladesh Bank on instances of fraud and forgeries.
In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Group's and the Bank's ability
to continue as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going
concern basis of accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Bank or to cease operations or
has no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Group's and the Bank's financial reporting
process.
Auditors' responsibilities for the audit of the consolidated and separate financial statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from
material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error and to issue an auditors' report that includes our opinion.
Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance
with ISA will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error
and are considered material if, individually or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the
economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial statements
As part of an audit in accordance with ISA, we exercise professional judgement and maintain professional
skepticism throughout the audit. We also:
• Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud
or error, design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is
sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement
resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery,
intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates
and related disclosures made by management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management's use of the going concern basis of accounting and,
based on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions
that may cast significant doubt on the Group's and the Bank's ability to continue as a going concern. If we
conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditors' report to the
related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion.
Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditors' report. However,
future events or conditions may cause the Group and the Bank to cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure, and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures,
and whether the financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that
achieves fair presentation.
• Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business
activities within the Group and the Bank to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are responsible
for the direction, supervision, and performance of the Group's and Bank's audits. We remain solely responsible
for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of
the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify
during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical
requirements regarding independence and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that
may reasonably be thought to bear on our independence and, where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were
of most significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are, therefore, the key
audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors' report unless law or regulation precludes public
disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be
communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to
outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
In accordance with the Companies Act, 1994, the Bank Companies Act, 1991, and the rules and regulations issued
by Bangladesh Bank, except for the possible effects of the matter described in the Basis for Qualified Opinion
section of our report, we also report that:
I. We have obtained all the information and explanations which, to the best of our knowledge and belief, were
necessary for the purposes of our audit and made due verification thereof;
II. To the extent noted during the course of our audit work performed on the basis stated under the Auditors'
Responsibility section in forming the above opinion on the financial statements and considering the reports
of the Management to Bangladesh Bank on anti-fraud internal controls and instances of fraud and forgeries

(a) Internal audit, internal control, and risk management arrangements of the Group and the Bank, as
disclosed in the financial statements, appeared to be materially adequate;
(b) Nothing has come to our attention regarding material instances of forgery or irregularity or
administrative error and exception or anything detrimental committed by employees of the Group and
its related entities;

Provisions and interest suspense are separately shown under other liabilities as per First Schedule of Banking
Companies Act 1991 (as amendment up to date), instead of netting off with loans.
Rate of Provision
c) Depreciation at the applicable rates is charged proportionately on additions made during the year from
the month the assets are available for use if such assets are acquired in the first half of the month.
Depreciation is charged on assets retiring during the year for the period up to the end of the month of
their retirement if assets are retiring in the second half of the month.
d) Upon retirement of items of fixed assets, the cost and accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the
accounts and the resulting gains or losses, if any, are transferred to Profit and Loss Account.
e) Repairs and maintenances costs of fixed assets are treated as revenue expenditure and charged
to Profit and Loss Account when they are incurred. Depreciation of premises and equipment is
included in general and administrative expenses. Repairs and maintenances are charged to general
and administrative expenses and improvements of fixed assets are capitalized. Gain or loss on sale of
fixed assets is recognized in profit and loss statement as per provision of IAS 16 "Property, Plant and
Equipment".
f) Excess depreciation due to revaluation comparing the depreciation on cost value is transferred to the
retained earnings from revaluation reserve.
Derecognition of fixed assets
The carrying amount of an item of fixed assets is derecognized on disposal or when no future economic
benefits are expected from its use or disposal. The gain or loss arising from derecognition of an item of fixed
assets is to be recorded in profit or loss when the item is derecognized.
2.15.1 Impairment of fixed assets
At each balance sheet date, the Bank assesses whether there is any indication that the carrying amount of an
asset exceeds its recoverable amount. An asset is carried at more than its recoverable amount if it carrying
amount exceeds the amount to be recovered through use or sale of the asset. If this is the case, the asset is
described as impaired and an impairment loss is recognized as an expense in the profit and loss statement
unless the asset is carried at revalued amount in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 16,
Property, Plant and Equipment in which case an impairment loss of a revalued asset should be treated as a
revaluation decrease under that Accounting Standard. No impairment loss was recognized up to the reporting
period as there were no such indication existed as on Balance Sheet date.
2.15.2 Intangible assets
Intangible assets acquired as part of a business combination, other than goodwill, are initially measured at their
fair value at the date of the acquisition. Intangible assets acquired separately are initially recognized at cost.
Indefinite life intangible assets are not amortized and are subsequently measured at cost less any impairment.
Finite life intangible assets are subsequently measured at cost less amortization and any impairment. The
gains or losses recognized in profit or loss arising from the derecognition of intangible assets are measured as
the difference between net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the intangible asset. The method
and useful lives of finite life intangible assets are reviewed annually. Changes in the expected pattern of
consumption or useful life are accounted for prospectively by changing the amortization method or period.
Software
Significant costs associated with software are deferred and amortized on a straight-line basis over the period of
their expected benefit, being their finite life of 10 years.
2.15.3 Leases
IFRS 16: Leases has come into force on 1 January 2019, as adopted by the Institute of Chartered Accountants
of Bangladesh (ICAB). As Bangladesh Bank (BB) has no other alternative regulation or guidance regarding the
same, Agrani Bank limited has adopted IFRS 16 in preparing financial statements from 1 January 2020.
IFRS 16 Leases, defines a ‘lease’ as "A contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to use an asset for a
period of time in exchange for consideration". In order for such a contract to exist the user of the asset needs to
have the right to:
- Obtain substantially all the economic benefits from the use of asset (identifiable asset)
Agrani Bank Limited applied IFRS 16 using modified retrospective approach where the Bank measured the
lease liability at the present value of the remaining lease payments, discounted it using the bank’s incremental
borrowing rate at the date of initial application, and recognized a right-of-use asset at the date of initial
application on a lease-by-lease basis.
The Bank recognizes right-of-use assets at the date of initial application of IFRS 16. Right-of-use assets are
measured at cost, less any accumulated depreciation, and adjusted for any re-measurement of lease liabilities.
Right-of-use assets are depreciated on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The right-of-use assets are
presented under fixed assets. (Note-8).
Lease Liability
At the commencement date of lease, the bank recognizes lease liabilities measured at the present value of
the lease payments to be made over the lease term using incremental borrowing rate at the date of initial
application. Lease liability is measured by increasing the carrying amount to reflect interest on the lease liability,
reducing the carrying amount to reflect the lease payments.
The Bank has elected not to recognize ROU assets and lease liabilities for leases of low value assets and
short-term lease, i.e. for which the lease term ends within 12 months of the date of initial application. The Bank
recognizes lease payments associated with these leases as an expense. The contracts for premises with
branches, head office wings, circle office regional offices are considered for lease calculation.
More lease expenses recognized in early periods of lease, and less in the later periods of a lease;
A shift in lease expense classification from rental expenses to interest expense and depreciation.
As per IFRS 16: Leases, summary of lease related information is provided in the below table:
The Management of the Bank has approved the adoption of IFRS: 16 Leases in their MANCOM meeting no.
11th dated June 17, 2021 where the Bank has recognized lease assets upper value of BDT 2 crore. Based on
materiality consideration, the Bank has considered the 11 agreements for lease consideration which includes
Right of Use (RoU) and lease liabilities higher than 2 crores. Rest of the contracts are lower than 2 crore and
owned by the Bank.
Details of fixed assets are presented in note 8 and Annexure - G of these financial statements.
2.16 Other assets
As per BRPD circular no. 14 dated 25 June 2003, other assets/item(s) have been shown separately as ‘income
generating’ and ‘non-income generating’ in the relevant notes to the financial statements. Other assets include
investment in subsidiaries includes all items of other assets, advance for revenue and capital expenditure,
stocks of stationery and stamps, security deposits to government agencies, other receivables etc.
Other assets have been classified as per BRPD Circular No. 14 dated June 25, 2001 of Bangladesh Bank
and necessary provisions made thereon accordingly; and for items not covered under the circular, adequate
provisions have been made considering their realizable ability.
Other assets having no realistic prospect of recovery have been written off against full provision without
reducing the claimed amount of the Bank. Notional balances against other assets written off have been kept to
maintain the detailed memorandum records for such accounts/assets.
Non-banking assets were acquired due to the failure of borrowers to repay the loan in time taken against
mortgaged property. The Bank was awarded absolute ownership of a few mortgaged properties (mostly land)
through the verdict of the Honorable Court under section 33(7) of the Artha rin Adalat Act 2003. The value of
the properties has been recognized in the financial statements as non-earning assets on the Basis of third-
party valuation report. Value of the assets received in addition to the loan outstanding has been kept as reserve
against non-banking assets.
Capital is managed in accordance with the board approved capital management planning from time to
time. Senior management develops the capital strategy and oversees the capital management planning of the
Bank. The bank's Accounts and Risk management department are playing key role to implement the Bank's
capital strategy. Capitalis managed using both regulatory control measures and internal matrix.
Dividends on ordinary shares are recognized as a liability and deducted from equity when it is
approved by the bank’s Annual General meeting. Dividends for the year that are approved after the
reporting date are disclosed as an event after the reporting date.
The bank is in difficulties maintaining the ratio of minimum Capital to Risk-Weighted Assets (CRAR) as per
BASEL-III guidelines, and Bangladesh Bank has put a bar on declaring any types of cash dividends during the
forbearance period as per letter no. DOS(CAMS)1157/01(II)-C/2022-2298; dated 28 April 2022. Therefore, the
Board of Directors has not declared any dividend for the year ended 2021.

which are as under:
a) Contributory recognized provident fund (CPF) scheme
i. Employees’ contribution 10%;
ii. Bank's contribution 8.33%;

The Bank operates a Death Relief Grant Scheme since January 01, 1989, which replaced the group insurance
scheme. The scheme is applicable to all employees of the Bank and payments out of this fund are made to the
successors of the employees on their death while in Bank's service and quantum of payment is determined as
per scale and grade of such employees.
2.32 Taxation

except to the extent that it relates to a business combination or items recognized directly in equity.
i) Current tax:
Current tax is the expected tax payable on the taxable income for the year, using tax rates enacted or
substantially enacted at the reporting date and any adjustment to the tax payable in respect of previous years.
Provision for current income tax of the Bank has been made on taxable income @ 40% considering major
disallowances of expenses and concessional rates on certain incomes (0% on gain on trading of govt.
securities, 10% on capital gain of shares & MFs and 20% on dividend income) as per Income Tax Ordinance
(ITO) 1984.Tax provision of the Group entities is made on taxable income of subsidiaries at different rates
applicable as per the ITO 1984 and the tax authority of the country where it is incorporated.
Detail’s status of Tax Provision and Tax assessment are shown note 12.4 and annexure-F of the financial
statements.

differences between the carrying amount of assets and liabilities used for financial reporting and the amount
used for taxation purpose as required by IAS 12 Income taxes and BRPD circular no.11 dated 12 December
2011. Deferred tax assets is recognized for the carry forward of unused tax losses and unused tax credits to the
extent that it is probable that future taxable profit will be available against which they can be used. Deferred tax
assets and liabilities are reviewed at each reporting period and are measured at the applicable tax rate as per
tax laws that are expected to be applied when the assets is realized and liability is settled. Any unrecognized
deferred tax assets or liabilities are reassessed at each reporting period and recognized only if that has become
probable that future taxable profit or loss will be available against which they can be used or settled.
Details of deferred tax assets or liabilities and amount recognized in profit and loss account for deferred tax
income or expense are given in note 9.4 in the financial statements.
iii) Assessment for uncertainty over income tax treatments (under IFRIC 23): At reporting date, the Bank
assessed to consider uncertain tax treatment separately or together in line with Income Tax ordinance
and rules 1984. The Bank applies significant judgment and past records of tax assessment and demand
in identifying uncertainties over income tax treatments. Since, the Bank is being operated as complex
financial intermediary to provide a comprehensive financial solution to customers, it assessed whether
the Interpretation of IFRIC 23 Uncertainty over income tax treatments had an impact on its consolidated
financial statements. Upon adoption of the interpretation, the Bank considered whether it has any uncertain
tax positions, particularly those relating to transfer pricing, payment under credit facilities etc. The Bank
determined, on its tax compliance and best practice, it is probable that its tax treatments (including those for
the subsidiaries) will be accepted by the taxation authorities. The interpretation did not have an impact on the
consolidated financial statements of the Bank.
2.33 Provisions
Provisions are recognized if the Bank has a present legal or constructive obligation as a result of past events if
it is probable that an outflow of resources will be required to settle the obligation, and a reliable estimate can be
made of the amount of the obligation.
The amount recognized as a provision is the best estimate of the consideration required to settle the present
obligation as of the Balance Sheet date, taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the
obligation.
Each material item as considered by management significant has been displayed separately in the
financial statements. No amount has been set off unless the Bank has legal right to set off the amount sand
intends to settle on a net Basis. Income and expenses are presented on a net Basis only when permitted by the
relevant accounting standards.
The values of any asset or liability as shown in the statement of financial position (balance sheet) are
not off-set by way of deduction from another liability or asset unless there exist a legal right therefor. No such
incident exists during the year.
Financial guarantee contracts are contracts that require the issuer to make specified payments to reimburse
the holder for a loss it incurs because a specified debtor fails to make payments when due in accordance with
the terms of a debt instrument. Such financial guarantees are given to banks, financial institutions and other
parties on behalf of customers to secure loans, overdrafts, other banking facilities and other various payments.
Financial guarantees are recognized in the financial statements at fair value on the dates the guarantees were
given as contingent liabilities.
As per IAS -10 "Events after Reporting Period" events after the reporting period are those events, favorable and
unfavorable, that occur between the end of the reporting period and the date when the financial statements are
authorized for issue. Two types of events can be identified:
(a) those that provide evidence of conditions that existed at the end of the reporting period (adjusting
events after the reporting period); and
(b) those that are indicative of conditions that arose after the reporting period (non-adjusting events after
the reporting period).
For the purpose of Segment Reporting as per International Financial Reporting Standard-8 "Operating
Segments", the following segments relating to revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities have been identified
and shown in the related notes accordingly as primary/secondary segments.
Being a financial institution, in the ordinary course of business, the Bank is sensitive to verities of risks. The
generic severity of such risk(s) is much intense in our locality due to presence of large number of banks and
complex financial transactions. In such highly competitive environment to ensure a bank’s consistent system
and performance, the presence of strong Risk Management culture is obligatory. Being compliant, the Bank is
now looking forward to take risk management practice to a different level, preventing risk before occurrence,
i.e., on a proactive Basis rather than on a reactive Basis. As a part of regulatory and global benchmarking the
bank has based upon 06 (six) core risk guidelines of Bangladesh Bank and Basel framework. Listed below are
the identified risks the Bank is currently managing or intends to manage in the future:
5 Residual Risk (CRM) Internal Control & Compliance Risk Pillar –II
Accordingly, the Bank has various high-powered committees to monitor and ensure smooth risk management
activities. For example, Management Committee (MANCOM), Asset Liability Committee (ALCOM), Credit
Committee (CC), Audit Committee, Risk Management Committee, etc. To manage the overall risks of the
Bank in line of Basel the bank has formed a dedicated Risk Management Division. The details of ABL's risk
management are shown in the chapter "Risk Management".
Fraud and forgery have become important issues in recent years. These have a major impact on our country‘s
economy, hindering economic development. Agrani Bank has always been focused on controlling fraud
and forgery by establishing and maintaining proper control systems. Today, fraud and forgery appear in
diverse forms. To prevent fraud and forgery, Agrani Bank has formed a Vigilance Division/ MD’s squad under
the direct supervision of Managing Director. This wing exclusively deals with all kinds of fraud and forgery
and acts independently where internal and external fraud and forgery incidents are escalated. The wing
also investigates, review the cause and report to the concerned authority accordingly. Also, the bank has a
Compliance Department under Internal Control & Compliance Division.
To protect the bank and its stakeholders’ interests, the investigation team identifies perpetrators and the
root cause of the reported incident. As a remedial course of action, preventive measures are recommended
to the business/functional unit to take necessary action relating to process improvements, recovery of
the misappropriated amount, adjustment of the operational loss, and appropriate action initiated against
the perpetrator. Investigation reports are also placed to the Board Audit Committee for their direction and
guidance. All fraud and forgery cases that were identified in 2021 were also duly reported to Bangladesh Bank
as per regulations and adequate provisions have been maintained in the books of accounts. On the other hand,
the management is exerting full efforts to recover the loss amount incurred due to fraud.

A number of new standards and amendments to standards are effective for annual periods beginning on or
after 01 January 2020 and earlier application is permitted. However, the Bank has not early applied the following
new standards in preparing these financial statements.
IFRS 17– Insurance Contracts was issued in May 2017 and applies to annual reporting periods beginning on or
after 1 January 2021. IFRS 17 establishes the principles for the recognition, measurement, presentation and
disclosure of insurance contracts within the scope of the standard. The objective of IFRS 17 is to ensure that an
entity provides relevant information that faithfully represents those contracts. The Bank has not yet assessed
in potential impact of IFRS 17 on its financial statements.
The IASB decided to revise the Conceptual Framework because some important issues were not covered and
some guidance was unclear or out of date. The revised Conceptual Framework, issued by the IASB in March
2018, includes:
• improved definitions of an asset and a liability, and guidance supporting these definitions; and
• clarifications in important areas, such as the roles of stewardship, prudence and measurement
uncertainty in financial reporting.
The Conceptual Framework does not have a stated effective date and the International Accounting Standards
Board (IASB) will start using it immediately.
• clarify that to be considered a business, an acquired set of activities and assets must include, at a
minimum, an input and a substantive process that together significantly contribute to the ability to
create outputs;
• narrow the definitions of a business and of outputs by focusing on goods and services provided to
customers and by removing the reference to an ability to reduce costs;
• add guidance and illustrative examples to help entities assess whether a substantive process has been
acquired; remove the assessment of whether market participants are capable of replacing any missing
inputs or processes and continuing to produce outputs; and
• add an optional concentration test that permits a simplified assessment of whether an acquired set of
activities and assets is not a business.
The amendments are effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the
beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after 1 January 2020 and to asset acquisitions
that occur on or after the beginning of that period. Earlier application is permitted.
The changes in Definition of Material (Amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8) all relate to a revised definition of
'material' which is quoted below from the final amendments:
Mr. K.M.N. Manjurul Hoque Labloo Director Member Global News, Editor-in Chief
As per IAS 8 "Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors" Accounting Policies are
applied consistently for comparability between financial statements of different accounting periods. Changes
in Accounting Policies are applied retrospectively to the financial statements (if any). Comparative amounts
presented in the financial statements affected by the change in accounting policy for each prior period
presented.
Judgment has been exercised in considering the impacts that the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has
had, or may have, on the consolidated entity based on known information. This consideration extends to the
nature of the services offered, customers, staffing, and geographic regions in which the consolidated entity
operates. Other than as addressed in specific notes, there does not currently appear to be either any significant
impact upon the financial statements or any significant uncertainties concerning events or conditions which
may impact the consolidated entity unfavorably as at the reporting date or subsequently as a result of the
Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
Management has also assessed the overall impact on COVID 19 and has not identified any indications that
may cast doubt on the going concern of the group and the bank. Bank's primary business has not impacted
expressively as it has a significant growth even the pandemic declared by WHO except trade business. The
management does not see any issue concerning going concern due to the recent pandemic COVID-19. Besides,
the management is not aware of any other material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt upon the
bank's ability to continue as a going concern.
2.50 Disclosure of FRC Policy on Use of Audited Financial Statements in Processing Loans
Audited Financial Statements are mandatory documents for any existing company at the time of applying for
new loan facility from bank. The bank uses the Audited Financial Statements while assessing any new credit
/ Loan facilities. In compliance with BRPD Circular Letter No. 04, dated January 04, 2021, the bank will obtain
audited financial statements while approving any new loan. It is also mandatory to the client of the bank to
submit annual audited financial statements of the company on an annual basis. Audited Financial Statements
are required to be preserved with the loan file by the bank. However, in some special circumstances where
latest Audited Financial Statements may not be available, the bank uses interim Management Accounts for
the Borrower Risk Rating (BRR) or ICRR for the purpose of renewal of any loan facilities. Such BRR or ICRR
is approved by the Management only for Interim use with an instruction to update the same with the Audited
Financial Statements. However, as per the BRPD Circular Letter 35 dated July 06, 2021, and FRC Letter No.

overstated by the total amounting to BDT 130.82 crore. Thus, the audit report was modified in this regard. The
bank has corrected the errors in the current year and recorded the transaction accordingly.

52 Performance Evaluation
Chapter-XV of the Bangladesh Labour Act, 2006 (as amended up to 2013) deals with the workers’ participation
in company’s profit by way of ‘Workers Participation Fund’ and ‘Welfare Fund’. This Act requires the “Industrial
Undertakings” to maintain provision for workers’ profit participation fund @5% on net profit. Since this
requirement contradicts with the ‘Section 11’ of the Bank Company Act 1991 (as amended up to 2013), banks
in Bangladesh took up the issue collectively and sought opinion from the Association of Bankers Bangladesh
Limited (ABB) on the same. ABB wrote a letter to the Ministry of Finance of the Government of People’s
Republic of Bangladesh on 09 March 2016 to draw attention of the honorable Finance Minister regarding
relevance and applicability of Chapter-XV of the Bangladesh Labour Act, 2006 (as amended up to 2013) for
the bank companies and to obtain a direction on the issue. The Ministry of Finance revealed their opinion that
WPPF should not be relevant for bank companies, and therefore it should not be applied there. They also
sought for an opinion on this issue from Bangladesh Bank. Subsequently, Bangladesh Bank agreed on all the
logics and legal opinion collected by the ABB and expressed their consensus with them on 29 November 2016.
In this backdrop, the Ministry of Finance has given their instruction, vide letter no. 53.00.0000.311.22.002.17-
130 dated 14 February 2017, for not applying Chapter-XV of the Bangladesh Labour Act, 2006 (as amended up
to 2013) in bank companies. Therefore, no provision in this regard has been made in the financial statements
for the year ended on 31 December 2021.

Investment Income earned through deployment of Mudaraba Fund. In some Mudaraba Deposits, additional rate was

Other Information
Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises all of the information in the
Annual report other than the financial statements.
Our auditor’s report thereon. Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not
express any form of assurance conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing
so, consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge
obtained in the audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information,
we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for the Financial Statements and Internal
Controls
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with
IFRSs and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable the preparation of the
financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. The Companies Act,
1994 require the Management to ensure effective internal audit, internal control and risk management functions of the
Company.
In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue
as a going concern, disclosing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of
accounting unless management either intends to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic
alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.
or in the aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis
of these financial statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with ISAs, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism
throughout the audit. We also:
• dentify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error,
design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and
appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from
fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,
misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
• Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are
appropriate in the circumstances.
• Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and
related disclosures made by management.
• Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based
on the audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may
cast significant doubt on the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material
uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the
financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based
on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions may
cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
• Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures,
and whether the separate financial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner
that achieves fair presentation.
• Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business
activities to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision
and performance of the company audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicated with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing
of the audit and significant audit findings, including any significant deficiencies in internal control that we identify during
our audit.
We also provided those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical
requirements regarding independence, and to communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may
reasonably be thought to bear on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were
of most significance in the audit of the consolidated and separate financial statements of the current period and are
therefore the key audit matters. We describe these matters in our auditors’ report unless law or regulation precludes
public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be
communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing so would reasonably be expected to outweigh
the public interest benefits of such communication.

directors or past directors of the Company during the financial year.
Before the financial statements of the Company were prepared, the directors took reasonable steps:

allowance for doubtful debts, and have satisfied themselves that all known bad debts had been written-off and
that adequate allowance had been made for doubtful debts; and
(b) to ensure that any current assets which were unlikely to be realised at their book values in the ordinary course of
business have been written down to their estimated realisable values.

(a) which would render the amount written off for bad debts or the amount of the allowance for doubtful debts
inadequate to any substantial extent in the financial statements of the Company; or
(b) which would render the values attributed to current assets in the financial statements of the Company misleading;
or
(c) which have arisen which render adherence to the existing method of valuation of assets or liabilities of the
Company misleading or inappropriate; or
(d) not otherwise dealt with in this report or financial statements which would render any amount stated in the
financial statements of the Company misleading.
No contingent or other liability has become enforceable, or is likely to become enforceable within the period of twelve
months after the end of the financial year which, in the opinion of the directors, will or may substantially affect the ability
of the Company to meet its obligations as and when they fall due.
(b) no item, transaction or event of a material and unusual nature has arisen in the interval between the end of the

Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Agrani Exchange House Private Limited (the “Company”), which comprise the statement of
financial position as at 31 December 2021, and the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income, statement of changes in
equity and statement of cash flows of the Company for the financial year then ended, and notes to the financial statements, including a
summary of significant accounting policies.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements are properly drawn up in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act,
Chapter 50 (the “Act”) and Financial Reporting Standards in Singapore (FRSs) so as to give a true and fair view of the financial position of
the Company as at 31 December 2021 and of the financial performance, changes in equity and cash flows of the Company for the financial
year ended on that date.
Other Information
Management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises the Directors’ Statement set out on pages 1 and 2.
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance conclusion
thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so, consider
whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the audit, or otherwise
appears to be materially misstated. If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other
information, we are required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
Management is responsible for the preparation of financial statements that give a true and fair view in accordance with the provisions of the
Act and FRSs, and for devising and maintaining a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide a reasonable assurance that
assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorised use or disposition; and transactions are properly authorised and that they are recorded
as necessary to permit the preparation of true and fair financial statements and to maintain accountability of assets.
In preparing the financial statements, management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern, dis-
closing, as applicable, matters related to going concern and using the going concern basis of accounting unless management either intends
to liquidate the Company or to cease operations, or has no realistic alternative but to do so.
The directors’ responsibilities include overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.

involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.

cumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control.

made by management.
● Conclude on the appropriateness of management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the audit evidence

ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our
auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our opinion.
Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However, future events or conditions
may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
● Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, including the disclosures, and whether the finan-
cial statements represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
